Full sized Landsat scenes can be processed in a way that is similar to preparingsmaller subsets. I used PANCROMA TM five file utility to get started. This utilityautomatically subsets a set of five band files, typically band1, band2, band3, thepanchromatic band, and the NIR band. to the maximum common area sharedbetween them. However, I needed the Maximum Common Extents coordinatesto do so I first selected ‘File | ‘Open’ and openedL71074091_09120050303_B10.TIF and p074r091_7dt19991216_z59_10.tif. Ithen selected ‘Band Combination’ | ‘Subset Images’ | ‘Compute MaximumCommon Extents’. The coordinates of the maximum overlap area was computedas follows 1 :Maximum Extents Coordinates:upperLeftX is: 406200upperLeftY is: -4828800lowerRightX is: 658830lowerRightY is: -5050830I then clicked ‘Close Graphic Images and Reset’, and selected ‘File | ‘Open’ andopened five band files from the first scene:L71074091_09120050303_B10.TIFL71074091_09120050303_B20.TIFL71074091_09120050303_B30.TIFL71074091_09120050303_B80.TIFL71074091_09120050303_B40.TIF (enter in this order!)I then selected ‘Band Combination’ | ‘Subset Images’ | ‘Subset Five Bands’After a while, a data entry box was presented. PANCROMA TM retained theMaximum Common Extents coordinates. After a few minutes the subsets werecomputed. I selected ‘File’ | Save Subset Images’ | ‘Geotiff’ and gave thesubsetted files the root name ‘MCEA’. I clicked ‘Close Graphic Images andReset’ and then repeated the process for the second set of five files from group B(no gap):p074r091_7dt19991216_z59_10.tifp074r091_7dt19991216_z59_20.tifp074r091_7dt19991216_z59_30.tifp074r091_7dt19991216_z59_80.tifp074r091_7dt19991216_z59_40.tif1 Note: The panchromatic band for the gap set actually falls one pixel and 15m short of the bandfile MCE coordinates. The Five File subset utility will usually handle this off-by-one Landsatissue. However, other PANCROMA TM utilities may not. For example, if I had chosen the Six Filemethod, it would have been necessary to manually adjust the computed MCE coordinates downby 30m (not 15m!) from the computed values.374
